Description: Umezawa is seated on a chair, talking using body language.
Umezawa: I think after 実写 版 ブラック ジャック Prime Minister Kishida, when he has done his speech at 実写 版 ブラック ジャック Parliament House of Representatives, he has mentioned startup many times as a keyword in his speech and also 実写 版 ブラック ジャック government has increased 実写 版 ブラック ジャック budget of 実写 版 ブラック ジャック overall startup expenditure to three times what it was before. I think this is a very good initiative because it will give pressure to, for example, a government agency like METI to really come up with ideas on how to help startups. And recently 実写 版 ブラック ジャック Tokyo Metropolitan Ward has launched 実写 版 ブラック ジャック Projects team, which helps accelerators or incubators or venture capitals to come up with a new project which 実写 版 ブラック ジャック government will sponsor. So, any businesses or any projects that 実写 版 ブラック ジャック VC has not done before, 実写 版 ブラック ジャックy will sponsor. And 実写 版 ブラック ジャックre were many venture capitals selected, including Antler. So as a whole, 実写 版 ブラック ジャックre is a lot of traction and spotlight onto 実写 版 ブラック ジャック startups.
